Cabaret INTENSIVE

Led by Susan Derry & Howard Breitbart

June 15-19, 2026 6:30PM - 9:30PM

Final Cabaret Performance: June 20, 2026 at 7:30 PM

Step into the intimate, expressive world of cabaret—a performance style that invites you to be fully yourself.

In this workshop, students explore how to use song and spoken text to tell personal, meaningful stories while connecting directly with an audience. Working in an intimate, supportive setting, you’ll experiment, refine your material, and discover how to shape a compelling and authentic narrative through music.

The week culminates in a live performance, where each participant shares a short set developed in class. Along the way, you’ll meet fellow artists and gain insight into your own creative voice.
